This is a very unusual (to me) tray cloth produced by Semco. It is quite unlike any of their other designs, although the illustrations on the stitching guide indicate several other designs in the series. This one shows the Melbourne skyline with Princes Bridge on the Yarra River. From the lack of tall buildings, this has to pre-date the 1950's!
This blog was created to tie in with the exhibition of my linens held at Bundoora Homestead Art Centre, Vic. from August 29 to September 16, 2012. The collection is still growing, so this blog will be updated on a regular basis as I accumulate more items. Many of these are either partially complete, or not embroidered at all. I accquire my linens from a variety of sources including opshops, garage sales, eBay, and people who know I have a passion for vintage embroidery.
